Wonderful experience highly recommended! - For me, one of the best food tour experiences in Seoul! Ideally to do when you arrive in Korea, to pick up the right restaurant codes, and to meet great people from the start of your stay, especially if you are a solo traveler! Jae was a great guide, very funny and generous in sharing. We visit more authentic and less touristy corners and restaurants. I'm thinking of doing this food tour again on my next trip to Seoul!

Awesome local favorites - Come on an empty stomach! Don't eat anything for the day. You'll be bursting by the end. Well worth the price You will be eating and drinking so much with Jae guiding you through his own neighborhood favorites. Jae was friendly and fun to chat with as well.

Great food and warm host - Jae is a great host and has designed the tour perfectly. It has a good balance of food and drink pairings with history and stories of Korean culture. Jae gave clear instructions on meeting point and made it very easy. It being a small group was also great so we could all chat with the other tourists and get to know them better. Highly recommend!

A must do when in Seoul. - This was a wonderful experience. Jae was our guide for the night and really made me feel very welcome and included. You could really tell from his interactions with the restaurant owners that he really cared about showcasing his local area and helping people experience real korean food, which they may not be able to as a solo traveller. If you have the opportunity to join this tour I 100% recommend you do. It's a great night with great people. I have already planned another trip to Seoul and will be booking another experience with Jae and goodmate travel.
